To crucify yourself The universe behold Dreams upon the shelf Loose papers unfold To commit arson on babel When the gods won’t knock it down The desire only to travel, Where companies tyranny can’t be found To escape the noise, however brief The surreptitious feeling of a thief The streams, the rocks, the trees — these moments you steal Sequestered, in solitude, at ease These moments are real.. These moments are real.

~Stealing Solitude
To crucify yourself The universe behold Dreams upon the shelf Loose papers unfold To commit arson on babel When the gods won’t knock it down The desire only to travel, Where companies tyranny can’t be found To escape the noise, however brief The surreptitious feeling of a thief The streams, the rocks, the trees — these moments you steal Sequestered, in solitude, at ease These moments are real.. These moments are real.
